My father-in law received a letter from the Nationalist Party headquarters informing him that due to his age (80+) his name was being withdrawn from the electoral register on the grounds that at such an advanced age he could not possibly be of sound mind. Yes, he is traditionally a Labour voter and his mind is as sharp as ever, and to attempt to rig the referendum in this way is contemptible and brings massive discredit to the Nationalists.

One wonders what other tricks are up their sleeve. Incidentally, many of the family are pro-EU; or at least were before this gross insult.
